SftButton/OCX 3.0 - Button Control

DropDownToggle Property, SftButton Object

Defines whether the drop down button is a toggle button.

Syntax

Get

Put

object

A SftButton object.

Boolean

Defines whether the drop down button is a toggle button.

Comments

The DropDownToggle property defines whether the drop down button is a toggle button.

Once the mouse button is released after clicking a button, a button usually returns to its released position (i.e., not pressed). By defining the drop down button as a toggle button using the DropDownToggle property, the drop down button can instead act as an on/off switch. Each mouse click will alternate between the pressed and released positions.

The status of the drop down button can be defined using the DropDownPressed property.

The button portion is controlled by the equivalent Toggle property.
